Observations from my little vantage point on the world.
Fashion, celebrity, family, friends, and sports are all fair--and fun--topics of discussion.

Separated at birth?

As I watched President Obama's address to Congress last week, I was reminded of a thought that I had during the 2008 presidential campaign: Joe Biden looks like Sam the Eagle from the Muppets.

I love that Mr. Biden wore a tie in "Sam the Eagle Blue" for the address. Well played, Joe.

I first noticed this when the last Presidential race commenced: his straight brow, his distinguishing beak, and the way he flaps his jaw... not to mention the general cylindrical shape of the head, and the flare of hair around the back of his neck ....
